Hi Andrea,
If you found his birth on the IGI and there is no father name, then it would suggest that he was illegitmate, Unfortunately thier site is not working properly so I cant check.
His mother may have married a Playford after his birth.

Hi
Have you checked the Wood Dalling registers? Often the originals have things not noted in indexes.
You mention Elizabeth & Robert Playford in the Workhouse, have you looked at the workhouse records? Where does it say Elizabeth and Robert were born in the 1851 census?
I have looked at the index of Norfolk marriages and I see no Elizabeth Ward to a Robert Playford beween 1801 and 1837. I did notice John Ward and Ann Jacobs getting married at Edgefield in 1825 though.
Best of luck.
Teddy
